irish Posted October 28, 2020 Author Share Posted October 28, 2020 1 hour ago, Smau said: I need to fill my RB2 slot in a PPR league and deciding between Forunette vs. the Giants and McKinnon vs. Seattle. If I knew Mckinnon was going to be the lead back, I'd probably pick him because of his track record when he gets touches, but I have no idea what SF is going to do at this point... For all I know, Hasty gets 80% of the snaps. Plus, Giants matchup is more favorable on paper. I guess I just haven't seen enough of Fournette this season to feel confident putting him in the RB2 slot on what will be a VERY competitive week - need all the points I can get. FWIW, I also have Perine. And after last week, really wishing Cardinals didn't have a bye because Edmonds would be RB2 no question I'd wait as long as I could to make a decision but I'm leaning with starting McKinnon.

Red Storm Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 I am in need of a QB this week with Watson on bye. Does this move seem out of point: Given that I have Gronk playing on Monday night, should I wait until Sunday night or Monday to see how my team is doing without a qb. If I need points I could drop gronk to pick up either Danny dimes or Dallas starting qb. Or do I play it safe and grab a Big Ben, Cousins or Carr now for dropping the same player or Higgins or Claypool? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Higgins would be the player to drop unfortunately and for Carr of those 3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
washingtonredwolves Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 (edited) Hey Irish, thanks for your help previously I still haven't pulled the trigger on that earlier trade (gurley+moore for kelce+lamb+davis) as I've been worrying about how to handle the gaping hole I'd have at RB2 if and until Ekeler returns. My team is 4-3 so I can't afford to take a bunch of L's while waiting for him to return. However, the same guy I'm negotiating with offered me another trade which I like better. I give: D Henry, Diggs (or Golladay) I receive: D Cook, Kelce For reminder my team is QB: Watson, Herbert RB: Henry, Gurley, Lindsay, Perine, Ekeler (IR) WR: Golladay, Diggs, Moore, Fulgham, Patrick TE: Fant, Hooper I would scoop up mattison as insurance as well Any advice?

I think you're losing on that deal. Henry is better then Cook and either Diggs or Golladay are valued higher than Kelce. I wouldn't do that deal.

irish Posted October 28, 2020 Author Share Posted October 28, 2020 For those with Zeke contemplating what to do, just read this piece from 4 for 4 - Trade away … Ezekiel Elliott, RB, Cowboys Elliott’s fortunes are heading the same way as the Cowboys, and that would be spiraling down the toilet. Zeke was already having a frustrating year, but he’s currently the RB3 on the year in PPR scoring thanks to six touchdowns and 31 receptions. However, Zeke’s fumbling problems and the Cowboys’ implosion have pushed Tony Pollard more into action, as he’s handled 24 carries over the last three weeks despite seeing just seven over the first four weeks. The Cowboys face a number of good offenses in the coming weeks, which is bad news for Zeke’s outlook as he’s handled just 24 carries the last two weeks in back-to-back blowout losses. The Cowboys still have to face the Eagles (twice), the Steelers, the Ravens, the Bengals, and the 49ers. Zeke’s current status on the scoring leaderboard and name-value make him a decent trading piece at this point. The market: Zeke was traded straight up for James Conner, Todd Gurley, Julio Jones, James Robinson, and A.J. Brown. Zeke was swapped for Robby Anderson and Nick Chubb in one league, and Robert Woods and Chris Carson in another. He and Michael Thomas were traded for Keenan Allen and James Conner. And in another league, Zeke and A.J. Green brought back just Chris Carson. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChewyCalamari Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 Was offered Zeke straight up for AJ Brown. Yay or nay?! Need an RB bad. Currently 2-5 and last in my division (W-L and points) Zeke's schedule with that offense is concerning though.... .5 PPR league. Current roster (2-5): QB - Patrick Mahomes WR - AJ Brown, Allen Robinson, Robby Anderson, DJ Chark, Justin Jefferson RB - James Conner, David Johnson, D'Andre Swift, Antonio Gibson, Chase Edmonds Raheem Mostert (IR), Saquon Barkley TE - George Kittle, Jonnu Smith DST - 49ers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kle Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 (edited) Playing the Carson/Mixon owner and am ahead of him in the waivers... should I pick up Bernard or Hyde? I may not even use them, so it's more about which pick up hurts him more. Thanks! Edited October 28, 2020 by kle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slimgoodboogie Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 (edited) Hello Irish! Would you please rank these QB options this week. Cam Mayfield Goff Cousins Tua Rivers Also, I currently have Cam. My RBs are CMC, Sanders, Edmonds, Swift, and Jackson. Herbert owner will trade me for Swift, but I'm reluctant. Would you make that trade if I also got one of his RBs back? Could probably get Dobbins, Hasty, White, Lindsay, or Perine. Thanks!

RMS@1 Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 f I win this week I get to .500 pick one PPR for my flex Dionte Jonson Scottie Miller David Montgomery Myles Gaskin or Zeke ( I know that sounds crazy but I have Cook and AJones, and his backup Williams as RB’s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kle Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 As always, thanks for your help! Someone dropped Miles Sanders (idk why)... I'm definitely dropping Williams if Aaron Jones practices in full today. Yes, I'm hoarding RBs as trade bait. However, if he doesn't... my options: 1) Drop McKinnon. Risk of minimal points from Williams if Aaron Jones plays and Crowder doesn't. 2) Drop Chark. Weakens my WR even further, but it's unknown how he'll do with Mike Glennon at QB. My team: 10-team 0.5 ppr (1 QB, 2 RB, 2 WR, 1 RB/WR, 1RB/WR/TE, 1 TE, 1 K, 1 DST) QB: Justin HerbertWR: AJ Brown, Tee HigginsWR/RB: Jamaal Williams RB: Melvin Gordon, Myles Gaskin WR/RB/TE: Giovani Bernard TE: Travis KelceK: Justin TuckerDST: Kansas City Bench: Jamison Crowder (q), Jerick McKinnon Out/On Bye: Christian McCaffrey, David Johnson, Chris Godwin, DJ Chark, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slim Goff Mayfield Rivers Cam Tua Cousins Trading Swift for Herbert is definitely a more than fair deal, however, I'd personally rather keep the top 15 RB and play musical QBs, than get the top 10 QB in Herbert and try to fill the hole left at RB.

FantasyBot Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 Hey Irish - Hope all is well. Lucky to have these choices for QB, RB and WR but having trouble deciding who to start. Who would you start from these: QB - Lamar Jackson vs Steelers or Justin Herbert vs Denver RB (pick 1 - Kamara in already) - James Conner vs Ravens, Melvin Gordon vs Chargers or Le"Veon Bell vs Jets WR (pick 3) - Tyreek Hill, AJ Brown, Tyler Lockett, Keenan Allen or Justin Jefferson Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheGuildedAge Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 @irish Even though I am 1-6 I made a huge trade today. New roster below, starters in bold, questions underneath. Thanks as always. QB: Watson, Carr RB: Bell, Perine, Edmonds, DJ, Gibson WR: Thomas, Godwin, Schuster, M Brown, Aiyuk TE: Cook, Engram K: Blankenship D: KC Any changes? 1. Drop Carr for Goff/Rivers (weather in Cleveland looks bad) 2. Drop Engram for a flyer on Dobbins or Moss? 3 I think Watson is a sell high with Texans trades looming. Trade him for Tannehill? Burrows?

I don't know if it was dumb but I gave up Gio, McKinnon, Woods, and Jackson for Edmonds and JU JU. I felt it was better long term for me. Opponent has Cooks and Theilen and I thought about Cousins to counter act those two a bit. Edited October 31, 2020 by TheGuildedAge Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
